I've seen orc's depicted in so many different ways. Sometimes just a bit bigger than humans and times a lot bigger than humans. But the WoW cinematic had one massive, fighting a night elf that was dwarfed in height. In the comics, I've seen orcs vary in size to, the one Varion kills was massive.

I agree on Tauren, but I don't think Draenei are that strong. They got owned by Orcs so hard they almost went extinct.

That'd probably have more to do with the fact that the Draenei are generally more about book knowledge than being battle ready as a race. It doesn't mean their melee fighters are going to lose to orcs one on one, but it does mean their melee fighters aren't going to be fighting one orc at a time.

and in MOP cinematic, we see One panda standing up to one orc and one human, and he's not even breaking a sweat.

sorry ....

In all seriousness though, they are pretty damn strong. Monks can break solid stone with their hands. That's how they busted up mogu back in the day.

I'd say tauren though are the strongest. Hard to argue when you see how they originally were back in WC3.

Followed by Orc and Dwarves at about the same level in brute strength. Both are built like trucks.

Just because you do not feel pain and are relentless doesn't make you stronger. I can push a bus with all my might for day after day and its still not going anywhere if I don't have the strength available. I really don't think they are any stronger then when they were humans. When Arthas's undead attacked in WC3 soldiers didn't go flying backwards from the force of his ghoul's/zombies's attacks or anything like that. I personally haven't scene anything special from them to show me they have greater then human strength

The generalist looks outward; he looks for living principles, knowing full well that such principles change, that they develop. It is to the characteristics of change itself that the mentat-generalist must look. There can be no permanent catalogue of such change, no handbook or manual. You must look at it with as few preconceptions as possible, asking yourself, "Now what is this thing doing?"-Children of Dune
